MILLBRAE, Calif. -- California's commercial chinook salmon fishing season will be called off again after a record low number of the fish returned to the Sacramento River to spawn last year, federal fisheries managers announced Wednesday.

The decision by the Pacific Fishery Management Council will almost completely curtail commercial fishing in Oregon as well, but allows the sport and commercial seasons in Washington to proceed at an almost normal level.

Sounds like the central valley farmers should switch from rice, wheat and fruit to "farm raised salmon".

The cure for a fallacious argument is a better argument, not the suppression of ideas.
